yes, and new driver was provided to have the gpio as a separate platform
driver which was also tested by Rob and he confirmed that everything is
working as expected. But the reviews asked for a total rewrite with the
exar codes split out from 8250_pci, and i got busy with a change of
dayjob. If you want to have a look at the final version that was
submitted then it is at:

I thought to do it this weekend but I will be again travelling to UK
this weekend so again postponed for atleast one month.
